2 Chronicles 12:8

8 However, they will become his slaves, so that they will come to appreciate the difference between serving me and serving earthly kingdoms."

2 Chronicles 12:8 In-Context

6 In response, the leaders of Isra'el and the king humbled themselves; they said, "ADONAI is right."
7 When ADONAI saw that they had humbled themselves, this word of ADONAI came to Sh'ma'yah: "Because they have humbled themselves, I will not destroy them but will grant them a measure of deliverance. My wrath will not be poured out on Yerushalayim through Shishak.
8 However, they will become his slaves, so that they will come to appreciate the difference between serving me and serving earthly kingdoms."
9 So Shishak king of Egypt attacked Yerushalayim. He took the treasures in the house of ADONAI and the treasures in the royal palace - he took everything, including the gold shields Shlomo had made.
10 To replace them, King Rechav'am made shields of bronze, which he entrusted to the commanders of the contingent guarding the gate to the royal palace.
